Given the postage adjustment in Nov 1922, surcharge was conducted on Peking print Junk issues. Inverted overprint was noted on 2c/3c. It is believed that these variety stamps were sold at a Szechuan county post office on 1 July 1924. Only about 10 have survived. It is known as one of the “Four Treasures of the Republic” (民國四珍).
